I dig bro. Whatever it is, abeg shey dey go church even if it's not your pops. You will find a bible believing church that suits you and give u a reason to be a Christian. cool

mrjojo:
Both pop and mom are pastors, and believe me is not easy been one.

I remember when me and my Lil Bro was always angry coz pop will always complain of our hair style, it either VERY low cut or nothing .i was trying Afro at a time cos it fits me more but it war at home.

We practically sleep in church, from one program to the other, no matter how sick or serious your next day exams are, you dare not stay back home during a vigil.

Mehn it not funny, I will never be a pastor, like ever
.FYI, am almost a full fledged atheist now, the last time I was in church was over a year ago when I was home, I go to church when am home cos i no want war.

Every one has their lifes to live, me and my siblings were FORCED to be christains ,now am serving,and am going to determine my life part MYSELF.

Oh, pop saw my pics on whats app recently and he was saving I should go clean out my beard(very little beard ), I laughed ,that ship has sailed mean.

Shout out to all Pastor kids out there .

trust me Bro, I tried to go, it just feels I don't belong. You know when you've been forced to do something your whole life. I was flogged to Bible school while I was in ss1,mine is even better, my Lil sis had it worse. I live my life now, don't give a sh1t Wat anyone thinks.

Re: The Big Challenges Of Being A Pastor's child by EmpressOVA(f): 10:46am On Dec 01, 2016
I so can relate to this!!!
Well,it can be very frustrating sometimes because of high expectation from members ,even relatives surrounding you and that do make most of us PKs prefer staying far from home whenever opportunity provides itself.
You're been watched out for everything_dressing, makeup,lifestyle etc.
Unfortunately, you'll realise that a large % of the kids of those who are always fending their eyes off you usually turn out bad(not glorying in that though).
Anyways, let's keep being us in all modesty but not in pretense otherwise one's life is wasting away in all ramifications.

Growing up as a pastor's kid was really challenging tho from my parents end it was kinda cool, but the society? they made me hate being a pastor's kid. Everyone is laughing at a joke and i join, they'll be like "pastor pikin, so you de follow laugh this kind tin", society keeps us in check and sheer scrutiny, at a point i stopped telling new friends i was a pastor's kid, a hidden identity to enable me enjoy some ounce of freedom. I had become an introvert and anti-social dude due to "pastor pikin, you too" syndrome, in any gathering at all, you are made to say the prayers, in school you are forced to preach even when you didn't prepare, at a point I got the "pastor pikin so you de mess, so you can't buy me biscuits? all the offerings your dad use to collect what happened to it?" haba!!! it was that bad. But thankGod I'm all grown up now and only a few know I'm a pastor's son even the ones that know have grown up too, but that depressing childhood, i can never forget.

7. Restrictions from Sex

Pressure are usually mounted on pastor's children on abstinence from premarital sex. They are usually ridiculed by the society each time they're spotted with the opposite sex. Sometimes, their parents will always sit them down ringing to their ears the spiritual consequences of pre-marital sex and the benefits of keeping one's virginity till wedding night. Most times, my dad monitors me so much that each time a lady visits me, he will keep parading my room for no good reason just to monitor whether I will comb the girl or not
But it's true. Premarital sex just like killing is a sin...or don't you know that it's same thing as fornication? you don't nid to b a pastor's kid to obey dis.

Did I say me and my siblings hardly come home during school break? Yeah it that bad.
God will now save you popsi will get to church before you.


Shout out to all Pastor kids out there .

Lol...this one na serious matter, same reason I vowed never to marry a pastor and if my husband eventually becomes a pastor, divorce is looming, can never subject my kids to the scrutiny pastors kids go through.

They don't have a life at all. Their lives are just what the church expects it to be and they report you like no man's bussines, your parents won't even care to investigate the situation, the verdict is "Guilty" . What time do thy have to raise kids? Church programs and counselling every day even people calling in the middle of the night, it's just too much abeg....

Pastors kids are always on trial, I prefer my kids to know christ in all sincerity than pretend to be born again because people expect them to be ...I no fit shout abeg.
Spiritually, physically, emotionally, they will always be on trial forever, church members even feel like they are entitled to any and every information about you.

And No, the life of a pastors child isn't normal.

My dear, EXACTLY, what i went through growing up ehn , full story for another day. So when people see me and say " you will be like your dad, and be a Pastor" you need to see how i look at them. I can never be a Pastor, ever.
